About George

George Laub is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with three years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage family conflicts, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and self-esteem concerns. George works with adults and young people to reduce harmful patterns and improve everyday relationships.

He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a strengths-oriented stance. Sessions focus on concrete skills and steady progress rather than quick fixes. George helps clients break down problems into workable steps, practice new ways of responding, and track what helps over time.

In sessions he pays attention to attachment concerns, communication difficulties, control issues, and problems that come with autism and Asperger syndrome. He also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, emptiness, and questions about life purpose. The practical aim is clearer thinking and fewer reactive moments.

When trauma is part of the picture, George draws on trauma-focused approaches to guide recovery and reduce symptoms that get in the way of daily life. He also addresses eating and food-related issues, narcissistic dynamics, post-traumatic stress, and challenges common in young adulthood.

People who work with him can expect straightforward, goal-focused sessions. He asks about patterns at home and work, helps build alternative responses to anger or distress, and practices those skills together during therapy. To start, he asks clients to describe what they want to change and suggests small, achievable steps toward that goal.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

George emphasizes evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on measurable change. For trauma-related problems he uses trauma-focused methods that guide people through processing difficult events and reducing the ways those memories interfere with daily life. These approaches aim to reduce avoidance and regain steadier reactions.

He also works from a strengths-based, skills-focused stance. That involves identifying unhelpful patterns, practicing alternative responses to anger or distress, and building routines that support better mood and relationships. This method is useful for anger, communication problems, and self-esteem work because it centers on concrete practice and review.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to pick techniques that match the person’s goals, preferences, and what comes up in early sessions. That means plans can change as progress and setbacks clarify what works best.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow brief check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats use less bandwidth or omit video, which can help with shorter check-ins or limited internet capability. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in remote sessions.
